Great job. You will indeed remember that one. It's been 48 years since I caught my first fox and even though I can't remember what I did yesterday sometime I still remember that morning like it was today. Congratulations young lady.


Life's too short, enjoy everyday like it was your last.

It's been more than fifty years since my first one. But I still, in my mind's eye, can see it's tail flipping in the air. I don't know how many more you'll catch, but you'll never forget that one!

Congrats . Something special about seeing a red fox bouncing in a trap.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

The first one is always the hardest. Now the rest will come easier. Great Job and good to see you sticking with it.

Way to go smasho
That bright white throat patch is what makes a nice fox pelt.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I feel like his foot is dead. It was really cold last night. Nothing feels broken but the foot is hard as a rock under where the jaw closed..

nice catch if its a first you should get it tanned or mounted


The rifle has no will of its own it may be used for evil but there are more good men than evil men and evil will be corrected by good men with rifles.
